The question is whether "efficiency" in a political party is a good thing.
Sometimes, I think yes. But most of the time efficiency in politics is just a boogeyman
to cover up diktats, and skipping the due process and throwing away the checks and balances.
"Ruthlessly efficient" is an interesting euphemism for "corrupt and willing to persecute minorities who are less likely to vote for them."
There's a reason India is considered a "hybrid regime" and not a democracy anymore, and Modi's BJP is the reason.
